This charming home is well situated within the development and provides a fantastic opportunity for personalisation by the new owner, with a great blank canvas to work with inside and out.

The accommodation is arranged ‘coach house-style’ with the first floor extended over the archway that leads to the parking area to the rear. Downstairs the layout is mostly open plan, with the house entered onto a hallway with a useful cloakroom with WC. The kitchen is situated at the front of the house and is appointed with wall and base cabinetry and a number of integrated appliances, while the rest of the space is open plan with room for a dining area adjoining the kitchen and a sitting area towards the French windows which open onto the rear garden. There is also a spacious cupboard under the stairs. On the first floor there are three good-size double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en suite bath/shower room. Two of the bedrooms have built in storage and completing the accommodation is an additional family shower room. The house has been well maintained and offers excellent potential for renovation.

Outside

The house is tucked away in a quiet corner of the development; an archway leads to the rear where there is a communal parking area with allocated spaces. To the front, well-stocked borders of a variety of shrubs provide a welcoming first impression. At the rear, a south-facing courtyard-style garden is laid to low-maintenance paving with a number of shrubs and small trees around the borders. A side gate allows rear access to the parking area.
